It’s all about the light

If you study photography, one of the first things you’ll  learn is:  it’s all about the light.  You’ll read about the “magic hours” at sunrise and sunset.  You’ll learn about strobes and artificial light.  You’ll learn how light colors the world around you.  Every evening, if the sun is shining, I’m amazed at the golden glow that paints the world around me.  I don’t think I ever really noticed how vivid the colors are at that time of day, until I started looking for it–waiting for it.

Opportunities

It was a gorgeous day in Denver, and I was invited to hang out with some local oil painters in the park.  It was an opportunity I couldn’t refuse, even though I was the only one without a paint brush.  We hired two local models for the day.  I haven’t had the chance to work much with models, so again, it was an opportunity that I couldn’t turn down.  The day was all about taking opportunities.
